1 PHIL 209: EXISTENTIALISM Fairfield University Fall, 2014: TR: 5:00 6:15 Prof. Robin M. Muller BNW 335 DMH 239 Office Hours: T 3:00 5:00pm [or by appointment] COURSE DESCRIPTION: Existentialism stands for a number of disparate threads in philosophy and literature. It can be difficult to circumscribe, in part because a number of the thinkers considered central for twentieth-century existentialism (for example, Martin Heidegger and Albert Camus) renounced involvement in any movement, and in part because classifications of earlier thinkers as existentialist are necessarily retrospective. Nevertheless, existentialism is widely taken to stand for the philosophical examination of individual human existence, with an emphasis on questions of meaning, freedom, responsibility, alienation, and death. In this course, we will trace the major developments of existentialist philosophy. Beginning with the widely acknowledged forefather of existentialism, Søren Kierkegaard, we will follow the evolution of existentialist themes from the nineteenth century through the phenomenological tradition of mid-twentieth-century Continental thought. Finally we will turn attention to questions about gender and racial identity, considering how existentialist thought finds timely application in social and political questions more broadly. Although we will occasionally look at the parallel developments of existentialist themes in literature, our perspective on that literature will always be philosophically informed. COURSE MATERIALS: The following materials are available in the Fairfield University bookstore. You are required to bring hard copies of the relevant texts with you to class: 1. Søren Kierkegaard, The Present Age (Harper, 2010). 2. Gordon Marino, ed. Basic Writings of Existentialism (Modern Library, 2004). [BW] All other materials (indicated on your syllabus with an asterisk) will be provided on Blackboard. COURSE REQUIREMENTS: Careful completion of assigned readings; thoughtful engagement in discussion; and consistent presence in and contribution to the classroom are essential to the success of this course. Beyond these basic requirements, you will be asked to complete the following: 1. Short (1 2pp.) reflection papers * due at the beginning of each class

2 2. One medium-length (5 6pp.) midterm paper 3. One final exam * Reflection papers are considered, thoughtful responses to specific questions posed about the reading. They are due in hard copy, at the beginning of the class, on the day the reading is to be discussed; no late papers are accepted under any circumstances. My grading system for the weekly response papers is as follows: you get one check mark for completing the assignment, and two check marks for an especially thoughtful response. I do not award check marks for responses that are late, incomplete, or that fail to demonstrate completion of the reading. If you hand in all the response papers and get single check marks on them all, you get a B for this portion of the final grade. For every two response papers you fail to hand in or for which you do not receive a mark, your grade is lowered one increment (e.g., from B to B-); for every two response papers on which you get two check marks, your grade is raised one increment.

Tardiness in excess of ten minutes will constitute an absence. 2. If a documented emergency prevents you from attending class, you may earn back a maximum of 1 absence by writing (and receiving a passing grade on) a 4-page paper outlining the central argument of the text covered on the day you were absent; absence papers will be graded pass/fail. 3. More than 7 absences for any reason will result in automatic failure of the course. OTHER CLASS POLICIES: All written assignments must be typed, double-spaced, and in 12-point Times New Roman (or comparably sized) font. No late assignments will be accepted; no exceptions. If you will have difficulty completing an assignment it is your responsibility to discuss the issue with me in advance. Under no circumstances do I accept electronic submissions of assignments.

4 Plagiarism is a serious offense, a violation of academic integrity, and a violation of the trust of professors and fellow students. It will not be tolerated. Plagiarism of any assignment will result in a 0 on the assignment or failure of the course and will be reported to the University. Although I do not anticipate it, this syllabus and the course requirements are subject to change. Any changes will be communicated in class and announced on Blackboard. OTHER RESOURCES: If you become interested in the themes of this course and would like to follow up with additional reading, the following are especially recommended. General: Søren Kierkegaard, The Essential Kierkegaard (ed. Howard Hong and Edna Hong) Friederich Nietzsche, Basic Writings of Nietzsche (ed. Walter Kaufman) Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Phenomenology of Perception Emmanuel Levinas, Basic Philosophical Writings Martin Heidegger, Basic Writings Race and Gender: Jennifer Allen and Iris Marion Young eds., The Thinking Muse: Feminism and Modern French Philosophy. Iris Marion Young, On Female Body Experience Jean-Paul Sartre, The Anti-Semite and the Jew Lewis Gordon, Existentia Africana Literature: Fyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and Punishment Fyodor Dostoevsky, The Brothers Karamazov Leo Tolstoy, The Death of Ivan Ilyich Albert Camus, The Stranger Jean-Paul Sartre, Nausea Samuel Beckett, Endgame Ralph Ellison, The Invisible Man Midterm Paper Topics 1. What is Camus critique of suicide? How does this critique fit into the doctrine of absurd reasoning? Finally, in what sense is the critique of suicide also a critique of other existentialist thinkers, such as Kierkegaard? Are such critiques convincing? 2. In what sense is Doestoevsky s Underground Man an existentialist? Evaluate with reference to at least one other thinker. 3. Camus Absurd Man, Kierkegaard s Knight of Faith, and Nietzsche s Overman are all conceived as exceptional figures. Focusing on one or two of these figures, evaluate what

5 makes the figure exceptional. How does this sense of exception fit within the philosopher s general existential framework? 4. Compare and contrast Nietzsche s concept of eternal recurrence with Camus reading of the myth of Sisyphus. 5. Discuss the role of organized religion in either Kierkegaard or Nietzsche. In what sense is the author s position rooted in the existentialist commitments?
